\n\nThe document outlines plans to develop a traveling historical exhibit titled "Lifting the Smoke Screen: The History of Cigarettes Smoking in the US". The exhibit will detail the rise and fall of cigarette smoking and the lung cancer epidemic in the 20th century US. It will be displayed at public health conferences in 2012. The portable exhibit will use a timeline to show key tobacco industry and public health events between 1900-2012. The goal is to keep tobacco control issues in the public discussion and support interventions to reduce smoking.
Jones NP, Noji EK, Smith GS, Krimgold F: Earthquake Injury Epidemiology for Mitigation and Response. Johns Hopkins University, 2013:1-565
During the late 1980s and early 1990s, interest in the epidemiology of natural disasters clearly accelerated. Several university research centres now concentrate on the health and medical effects of disasters, including collaborating centres under the sponsorship of WHO. Some of these institutions have also developed curricula that include basic epidemiology and information systems for disasters. In addition, new professional societies and scientific forums for the presentation of original work in this field have appeared.
One such scientific forum was held in July 1989 at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore. This symposium, entitled ‘The International Workshop on Earthquake Injury Epidemiology for Mitigation and Response’, brought together a group of interested professionals, all directly or peripherally interested in the research, planning, mitigation and response aspects associated with earthquake-induced injuries and deaths. It aimed to build on the foundations laid by Glass in the mid-1970s: identifying critical knowledge gaps and developing a research agenda for the study of earthquake health effects. Practical preventive interventions which could be based on research findings were discussed during the workshop, and some agreement on data- collection needs and methodologies was reached. But the truly unique contribution of this workshop was its emphasis on the absolute requirement of a multi-disciplinary scientific approach to the successful study of earthquake-related injury. For example, understanding the mechanisms of building failure in earthquakes requires structural engineering competence while medical expertise is necessary to understand the process of human injury in earthquake-induced building failure. Working alone, neither structural engineers nor epidemiologists can provide a complete description of the health effects of such disasters.
Over the years, the lessons drawn from this symposium on earthquakes have proven very useful to the prevention of deaths and injuries in other natural (and technological) disasters. The widely disseminated proceedings of the Johns Hopkins University Workshop have been used by other scientists, planners in urban and rural development and, perhaps most importantly, by government agencies charged with maximising the safety of citizens in earthquake-prone parts of the world

3. Discuss the significance of dead space
4. Differentiate between minute ventilation and alveolar ventilation
5. Describe the cough and sneeze reflexes
Study Resources:
1. Chapter 39, Guyton and Hall Textbook of Medical Physiology, 14th edition
2. Chapter 34, Ganong’s Review of Medical Physiology, 26th edition

Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

Exhibits Background, Objectives, Strategy
The Roswell Park Cancer Institute Department of Health Behavior under the direction of Dr. Cummings
and Dr. Hyland, have initiated a plan to develop a traveling historical exhibits with accompanying media
and web presence. So far the exhibit has been preliminarily to be located at the following three national
conferences:
• Association of Preventive Oncology – • National Conference on Tobacco or Health
March 3-6, Washington, DC – August 15-17, Kansas City, Missouri
• American Society for Clinical Oncology –
June 1-5, Chicago, Illinois
Title:
Lifting the Smoke Screen: The History of Cigarettes Smoking in the US
Objective:
To keep tobacco control on the public agenda over the next 24 months in an effort to provide support for
interventions to reduce tobacco use in the US (FDA regulation of tobacco products, smoke-free policies,
product warnings, higher taxes).
Strategy:
To exploit press opportunities around the 50th anniversary of the 1962 Royal College of Physicians Report
on smoking and health (March 7, 2012) and 1964 Surgeon General's Report on Smoking and Health
(January 11, 2014) by:
• Create a traveling exhibit detailing the rise and fall of the modern cigarette and lung cancer
epidemic in the US over the 20th century
• Have the exhibit displayed at high profile public health and medical meetings
• Develop a PR campaign to bring attention to the exhibit and the history of lung cancer in the US
over the past century (e.g., work with the Surgeon General's office to create press events
surrounding the exhibit leading up to the 2014 anniversary date of the 1964 SGR).
• Organize a campaign and contest to get the US postal service and the United Nations to
issue commemoratives stamp honoring the 1964 SGR
• Issuing reports from the ITC project that discuss the effectiveness of intervention that reduce
cigarette smoking and ultimately reduce the death toll caused by smoking
3. Historical Exhibit Scope of Work and Estimated Budgets 3
Target Audience:
• Primary: Public Health and Medical professionals.
• Secondary: elected officials and general public.
EXHIBIT IN DEVELOPMENT – MUSEUM QUALITY AND FLEXIBLE
“Lifting the Smokescreen”
This portable exhibit is being developed with the support of local museum exhibit designer, Scott Wood. This
historical timeline of tobacco throughout the 20th century and into the early decades of the 21st century (1898
– 2014), will portray the key events in tobacco history featuring lines that highlight the actions and
marketing of the tobacco industry, the actions of public health, and cigarette consumption over time with a
mapped line for lung cancer closely following the trend. The exhibit will be broken down into four time
periods: 1900 to 1939; 1940-1971; 1972-1997; 1998-2012.
The exhibit is being designed for maximum flexibility while maintaining museum grade design. The
complete structure is a 10’ x 20’ discrete environment with ceiling panels. When needed, the exhibit can
break into several different modules, 2 -20’ inline exhibits, or 4- 10’ exhibits, or anything in-between. The
outsides will also include printed graphics on the exterior and a ceiling panel, which is made of 8’ curved
pop-up frames themselves. The outside design, still in planning may include the victims of tobacco used, or
the “wall of shame.”

RPCI Exhibits
Working with Dr. Alan Blum from the University of Alabama, RPCI has collaborated, co-developed, and
supported the following exhibits:
• Cartoonists take up tobacco (2008 – RPCI and Buffalo International Airport). This exhibit was supported
through the Erie Niagara Tobacco-Free Coalition.
• The Pharmacy Exhibit – initially supported at the National Conference in Phoenix, AZ and then hosted
at the Buffalo Museum and Science Center. Materials are housed at RPCI. RPCI current used an intern
to catalog, scan and help to further digitize the collection. Some of the materials have been posted to
blumarchive.org. This exhibit was supported through the Erie Niagara Tobacco-Free Coalition.
• The Tobacco Stamp Exhibit – RPCI and Buffalo Museum and Science Center.
Web exhibits
• The BlumArchive.org – A website conceived and developed by RPCI to virtually host exhibit programs
from the archives of Alan Blum. This website has been developed ad-hoc and has not direct financial
support for development outside of the Flight Attendant and historical exhibit development.
• The Oral Tobacco Collection on Tobacco Documents Online. This exhibit was supported through the
Legacy tobacco documents grant supplement.
